One-third of coronavirus survivors diagnosed with brain condition
The Washington Times ^ | April 7, 2021 | Shen Wu Tan

About one-third of COVID-19 survivors have a neurological or psychiatric condition six months later, a large-sample study conducted by British researchers has found. Researchers examined health records of more than 236,000 patients. They found that about 34% of COVID-19 survivors were diagnosed with a neurological or psychiatric condition and were more likely to develop brain conditions than those suffering from other respiratory tract infections, according to the study published Tuesday in The Lancet Psychiatry journal...Anxiety was the most common condition, diagnosed in 17% of patients. Fourteen percent of patients experienced mood disorders, 7% had substance misuse disorders and 5% experienced insomnia. About 13% had their first diagnosis of a mental health issue.

Chances are the same percentage of people who were never infected have such a psychiatric background at this point.

In other words, the proper response to this article and its implied assertion is, “Compared to what?”

‘I’m not “afraid” of an unmasked person any more than I am of a drunk driver or urine-soaked street bum.’

I see; you think a person wishing to not impair his/her breathing fresh air by wearing of a filthy useless rag is the same as a drunk driver or a urine soaked bum...

and you have the gall to attack people as ‘ignorant sociopaths...’

“ doctors now think she had an earlier form of covid)”

Corona virus is not new. The previous SARS 1 was was in 2002.

But SARS 2 was not released 2 years ago.

But, yea the Corona virus’s have been around a very long time.

Why would anyone, unless they work for media sources where honesty would cost you your job, trust anything related to pharmaceutical profits from The Lancet, or the New England Journal, or Journal of the American Medical association? Their “peer reviewed” marketing hits on hydroxychloroquine to prepare the market for the experimental gene modifiers should be a shingle on the doors of their offices. At least Lancet and New England have retracted their published papers, in one or both cases (I forget the details since their claimed experimental evidence came from a soft porn fiction writer assisted by a woman who also worked in phone sex. JAMA, which, which unlike Lancet and the New England Journal, has not retracted their paper, published a paper on the lack of positive prophylaxis when the authors of the test tried to cure people already in hospitals with lethal doses of HCQ, one of the safest “drugs” ever approved by the FDS. No physician or scientist will not think about a Lancet or New England, or JAMA paper without remembering the dishonesty of all three famous journals, who get 90% of their funding from big pharma.

I’d be interested in the correlation between age and dementia. Given the age of many of the people who end up in ICU, if you are looking for dementia, you will find some.

“ There are seven coronaviruses that can infect people. People around the world commonly get infected with these four human coronaviruses: 229E, NL63, OC43, and HKU1. They usually cause a mild to moderate upper-respiratory tract illness, like the common cold that people catch every year.”

Unless there was some sort of gain of function taking place with the virus with your dog, you Would not have been effected nor gained immunity. If it could give you immunity, then it could have made you sick too - creating a new animal to human virus. So, it probably did not happen.

“admitted to intensive care with severe COVID-19”

Panic Mongers. Feh.

For those with eyes to see, charity has blatantly been circling the societal drain since March 12, 2020.

Wow-you have an impressive facility with scripture. Quite inspiring.

WHAT A CROCK OF DUNG!

You could take a cross section of any society BEFORE Covid and come up with the same findings.

“I just want to be nowhere near an ignorant sociopath who could care less about any other humans.”

I believe you mean “COULDN’T care less”. (Don’t feel bad; most ignorant say it incorrectly.)

If masks are magical, neurotic hypochondriacs wearing their scuzzy masks should feel secure in the knowledge that they themselves are perfectly safe. What other people do should be of no concern to them.

Over 85% of CCP Flu victims were fanatical mask wearers and lived quarantined lives for months. (When Killer Cuoma released that information, he was stunned.) What would a logical person do? Right... wear a mask and INCREASE the risk of infection.

Thank you for your kind words.

I read through the whole Bible (oh so long ago) but my memory on the Old Testament is much more limited. A lot of stuff from the New Testament pops into mind as I read these events.

I prefer to believe it's an ongoing work of the Third Member of the Holy Trinity (IMHO).

John 14:26 King James Version

26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, Whom the Father will send in My name, He shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.

Walked into a Christian bookstore about 43 years ago or so. A guy mentioned a Gospel verse to another guy looking at different Bible translations (as I was walking by). I said, "Oh the one..." - he was shocked that I knew what it said and couldn't believe it. I said, "Well, I know that one by heart". He was a street preacher.

No. It causes them to go maskless in public.
Sociologists have named it, “Common Sense Syndrome”

Sounds like day-to-day life.

No, they included people who were never admitted.
